Genius Beast Taming: Starting from Awakening an S-Rank Talent

Zhou Heng suddenly realized something: "Emperor Dawn and Supreme Worry-Free are both SSS-level talents. It seems that Senior Primordial Ancient Tree is investing in us SSS-level talent Beast Tamers in advance."

Emperor Xuanchen nodded: "That's true. Throughout history, only SSS-level talents have caught the eye of the Primordial Ancient Tree."

A huge weight was lifted from Zhou Heng's heart, and he felt much more relaxed: "Thank you for telling me all this, Master. Since the Emperor God was specially given to me by Senior Primordial Ancient Tree, I am relieved. However, Master, I still have one question."

Emperor Xuanchen's expression was extremely gentle: "If you have any questions, just ask."

Zhou Heng was very curious: "Where did the Titan Lord, which Senior Primordial Tree gave me, come from? According to the rules of the Starfire Contribution Beast Taming Inheritance System, Supreme Wuyou, Supreme Dinghai, and Supreme Miaoyi contributed a total of fifteen mythical-quality beast tamers. The Titan Lord shouldn't be one of the mythical beasts contributed by these three supreme beings, right?"

The rarity of mythical-quality beast cubs is self-evident, which is why Zhou Heng asked this question.

Emperor Xuanchen pondered for a moment, then organized his thoughts before saying, "Since the Three-Phase Cosmic Dragon disappeared with the entire Western Alliance, the Primordial Ancient Tree has become the only remaining mid-level Chaos-quality Beast Tamer in our human universe, the highest quality Beast Tamer in the human universe, and the strongest being in the human universe from ancient times to the present. Naturally, it has special channels that we are unaware of to obtain mythical-quality Beast Tamer cubs."

Zhou Heng nodded thoughtfully: "It seems that the Primordial Ancient Tree still holds many secrets."

Emperor Xuanchen revealed a meaningful smile, implying, "Every intelligent being has secrets. As long as these secrets don't affect our interests, we can completely set them aside. Besides, the Primordial Ancient Tree also has its privacy, and we should respect it."

Zhou Heng immediately adopted a docile expression: "I understand what Master means."

Emperor Xuanchen then changed the subject: "There's one more thing I need to discuss with you."

Zhou Heng adopted a listening posture: "Please speak, Master."

Emperor Xuanchen's expression was somewhat strange: "A few days ago, Lu Xie came to me and said that this year's Beast Taming College Entrance Examination should be changed."

Zhou Heng's expression changed slightly: "What mode does he want to change it to?"

Emperor Xuanchen briefly explained Emperor Luxie's idea: "In previous years, the Beast Taming Examination was similar to your mid-term and final exams at school. It was simply a matter of ranking students by level, then having them challenge each other, and finally determining the final rankings. He said this year wouldn't work because of you. Your strength is too high. If we follow the original model, no one would dare to challenge you. So he wants to change the Beast Taming Examination to a hunting model. On the day of the examination, a large number of evil creatures will be released into the examination hall for the candidates to hunt. They will earn points based on the strength and quantity of the prey they hunt, and then be ranked."

Zhou Heng asked eagerly, "Did Master agree to it?"

Seeing Zhou Heng's furrowed brows, Emperor Xuanchen couldn't help but smile indulgently. He then said seriously, "Not yet. This was originally a small matter, and I was even planning to agree. But then I suddenly remembered that you will also be taking the Beast Taming College Entrance Examination this year, so I didn't agree immediately and put it aside. This year's Beast Taming College Entrance Examination is your home turf. Now I want to hear your thoughts. If you are willing, then we can change the format. If you are not willing, then we will stick to the original format."

Zhou Heng immediately stated firmly, "The Beast Taming College Entrance Examination has been in place for thousands of years. Changing it suddenly is simply unreasonable. Moreover, Emperor Lu Xie's reasons are not sufficient. Under the original system, no one would dare to challenge me, but under his new system, is it possible that anyone could have a higher score than me? Emperor Lu Xie's attempt to change the college entrance examination system is simply superfluous and unnecessary."

Emperor Xuanchen nodded: "I understand what you mean. I will refuse him later. This year's Beast Taming Examination will proceed according to the original format."

Zhou Heng, being a meticulous person, always tended to think things through deeply: "Master, the Demon Slayer Emperor suddenly wants to change the format of the Beast Taming College Entrance Examination. Could there be some kind of conspiracy behind this?"

Emperor Xuanchen remained calm and composed, appearing completely in control: "I know what you're trying to say, but don't worry, he doesn't have the guts. He's most likely just feeling insecure as the alliance leader because I'm about to advance to the tenth-tier Supreme Beast Tamer, and last time I even surpassed him by promoting your alma mater, Xuanxiao Third Beast Taming High School, to a top-tier Beast Taming High School. That's why he wants to use the change in the Beast Taming College Entrance Examination format to show off and assert his presence. He doesn't want people to say that he's unworthy of being the alliance leader and that I, who has already stepped down, am being sidelined."

Zhou Heng was greatly puzzled: "Emperor Lu Xie, as a ninth-tier Emperor Beast Tamer, is a true high-ranking official in the Eastern Alliance. Would he really resort to such petty tricks?"

Emperor Xuanchen's smile deepened, and he took the opportunity to analyze Emperor Lu Xie's motives for Zhou Heng: "There was a saying more than 6,500 years ago that the world is just a giant makeshift stage, and I wholeheartedly agree! Moreover, precisely because Lu Xie is a ninth-tier Emperor Beast Tamer, as a true high-ranking member of the Eastern Alliance, he holds a high position and wields great power, possesses too much, and has family ties. In addition, his strength is inferior to mine, so he dares not openly break ties with me. But when facing me, he is ultimately unwilling to accept defeat, so naturally he will secretly compete with me in some minor ways to seize the initiative. This is nothing more than human nature."

Zhou Heng understood immediately: "I understand, thank you Master for explaining these things to me."

A hint of disdain flashed across Emperor Xuanchen's face, clearly showing that he didn't take Emperor Luxie and the others seriously: "These are all minor tricks. If Luxie had the opportunity to advance to the tenth-tier Supreme Beast Tamer, he probably wouldn't value power so much, and he wouldn't resort to such petty tricks. Unfortunately, he doesn't, so he can only resort to these trivial matters."

Zhou Heng wholeheartedly agreed: "I understand what Master means. As a Beast Tamer, the cultivation of your beasts is the most crucial thing. Once your beasts are well-trained, everything else has to give way to us. For example, we are all ninth-tier Emperor Beast Tamers, but Master, you have cultivated your main beast to the Chaos quality, opening the grand path to becoming a tenth-tier Supreme Beast Tamer. Emperor Lu Xie, Emperor Ming Hui, Emperor Xue Po, and Emperor Cang Wu, among others, can only bow down before you."

Emperor Xuanchen was increasingly satisfied with Zhou Heng: "Not bad, not bad. You are able to understand this at such a young age. You are indeed a promising talent."

Zhou Heng smiled and said, "Thank you for the compliment, Master."
